Spaceballs: The Animated Series is an animated television show aired on America's G4 channel and Canada's Super Channel. It is based on the movie Spaceballs. The show is produced by Brooksfilms, Mel Brooks' production company, through MGM Studios. Only three of the movie's cast members reprised their roles for this show: Mel Brooks (President Skroob and Yogurt), Daphne Zuniga (Princess Vespa), and Joan Rivers (the voice of Dot Matrix).

The show retains the same original sci fi bits from the movie, and adds references to other movies, TV shows, video games, and the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Occasionally the show repeats bits from the movie such as an alien bursting out of a man's stomach, Snotty, and Pizza the Hutt.

The series is not in continuity with the film, with the pilot being a loose remake of the film with a different ending.
